Recommended Posts

https://soundcloud.com/bats-brew/neon-blues

this is the first mix of this tune,
1st time i've posted it.

need some feedback on the mix in general.
mix is kinda 'faders up', so i'll be tweaking the mix quite a bit,
so feel free to include your ideas.

this is song #10, of a ten song instrumental album by Bats Brew, called "Elemental".
hope you enjoy it!
Neon Blues

What`s not to like,  loved the guitar sound and the Bass was  just  excelent well the whole thing really

hi paul! thank you for listening

 

bass was stepping on the synth bass, and vice versa, so i worked on that quite a bit...

Liked this one a lot.
Very different from the stuff I have heard from you before.

We all paint different pictures
The rasp/ssss (hi-hat)? is to much on my Focals
Loved the guitar stereo separation.
Reckon this one is going to be good as you work more on the mix and give it more depth.

Well done.

Bats doing the blues - nicely done. It sounded quite good to my ears. Excellent guitar playing as always.

Not bad sir at least I caught this one in its embryonic stage.  ?

hi wookiee! glad you caught this one too,

it will be one of the last things posted,

time for me to wrap this project up.

 

i'll be beginning final mixes tweaks, then start mastering.

meanwhile, i have original artwork to begin before sending it to the printers for a batch of cd's.

howdy ho, gary!

i don't know how different this one really is,

but it's cool that it hits a new chord...

 

hi hat too hot, check.

i've completely edited that hat, new hat choice, new eq and level

 

the rhythm guitars, are all mono, and hard panned...

the solos are a mix of mono and stereo, typically i don't pan the stereo solos, and soft pan the monos,

depending on where the balance is required.

This track was not found. Maybe it has been removed

You need to be quick with Bats tracks he showcases them for very short periods.

wookie's got that right, Old Joad...

 

these are 'working' mixes, meaning, they're active...

in fact, usually an early mix i put up, like this one,

is obsolete by the 3rd day it's up!!

 

 

LOL

 

so, just so you'll know,

i posted EVERY song on this new album, right here, looking for help from my 'peer' group,

and in most cases, i got GREAT help!

sometimes i posted early mixes, and then later, final mixes,

just to get enough feedback to dial in the songs,

so at this point,

i have 10 finished instrumentals, 

my first album of instrumentals.... i have 4 other full length albums of vocal songs...

 

this album will be called "Elemental", 

doing album art right now....
tweaking final mixes....
then very light mastering, targeting -14 LUFS...

then off to the cd printers, and they usually take a week to turn it around...

off to Amazon, once that's done, i'll put out some links.

hope you pick one up!
